- Abstract
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are currently used to provide broadband access to the Internet anytime and anywhere. Many routing protocols have been proposed in the literature. The inter-flow and intra-flow interference in WMNs greatly affect the performance of the routing protocol. To solve this problem, Expected Path Bandwidth-based metric routing (EPBMR) protocol in Wireless Mesh Networks is proposed in this paper, which improves the performance of WMNs. EPBMR protocol uses a novel routing metric, which is a combination of intra-flow and inter-flow interferences, and bandwidth, to select best paths to transmit data. Simulation results show that the proposed EPBMR improves the network performance and outperforms existing routing schemes, which are based on Expected Transmission count (ETX), and Expected Transmission Time (ETT), more specifically, EPBMR yields 26% and 33% more throughput compared with ETX, ETT, respectively. Delay End-to-End of EPBMR is reduced by 25% and 35%, compared with ETX, ETT, respectively.
